Everything you always wanted to know about swingers.

It was below me when you weren't writing things that resembled Z's output.

It has nothing to do with Koolaid. I gave up on trying to have civilized, serious conversation with you some time ago. I made the determination that it was not worth the effort.

"Looks like Z has had someone sit down and join him at the rhino hookah."

Pseudologia fantastica, mythomania, or pathological lying are three of several terms applied by psychiatrists to the behavior of habitual or compulsive lying. It was first described in the medical literature in 1891 by Anton Delbrueck.

Although it is a controversial topic, pathological lying has been defined as "falsification entirely disproportionate to any discernible end in view, may be extensive and very complicated, and may manifest over a period of years or even a lifetime".

I believe this is rampant among ALL politicians, epidemic with neocons and tea baggers though. _______________________________

There is a mental illness characterized by habitual lying. It goes by the name of Pseudologia Fantastica. Here are some of the characteristics of this ailment:

a. The lies told "are not entirely improbable" and "upon confrontation, the teller can admit them to be untrue, even if unwillingly." In other words, the liar is aware that he or she is lying.

b. The lies told cast the teller in a favorable light.

c. The tendency to lie is a long-lasting one and not the product of the moment. It reflects an innate trait of the personality.

Pseudologia fantastica may also present as false memory syndrome, where the sufferer genuinely believes that fictitious events have taken place, regardless that these events are fantasies.
